Brighton next manager odds: Graham Potter installed as early favourite to replace Chris Hughton
Swansea City manager Graham Potter has emerged as the strong favourite to be the next Brighton boss following Chris Hughton’s dismissal.Hughton was sacked after guiding the Seagulls to a 17th-place finish in the Premier League, avoiding relegation from the top-flight at Cardiff’s expense.2

Potter is strong favourite to succeed Hughton

The 60-year-old spent nearly five years with the south coast outfit and his assistant Paul Trollope and first-team coach Paul Nevin have followed him in departing.Tony Bloom, the chairman of the club, said: “Chris has done an excellent job over the past four-and-a-half years. First stabilising our club, reaching the play-offs in his first full season, securing our first-ever promotion to the Premier League, and retaining our status in two successive seasons.2

Hughton has been sacked as Brighton boss

“Undoubtedly, this has been one of the most difficult decisions I have had to make as chairman of Brighton & Hove Albion, but ultimately one I have made due to how we struggled in the second half of the season.“Our run of 3 wins from 23 Premier League matches put our status at significant risk. It is with that in mind, and the performances during that period, that I now feel its the right time for a change.”And Swansea chief Potter has immediately become a frontrunner for the post, with most bookmakers giving him the short odds of 1/8 to succeed Hughton.
